Dumping final prices here for reference: Mechanics Grab a weekly, run it, you'll get 12/24 coins depending on membership from Ethereal Ahoy. (any weekly works) Grab a heroic weekly, you'll get a separate 12/24 coins for that heroic weekly. Bumped to 16/32 for all-challenge/ Bumped to 18/36 for all expert. Alts can level items for free when another char did it - need 600 coins for all items + rune on an alt, aka 25 weeks if only running a solo (so only getting credit from Ahoy) - and you need 2760 tokens to buy everything and level to max on your main so between 29 weeks and 21 weeks to get everything (18 weeks if you run everything expert and get baddies every week - outdoor heroic) tokens per week: If you run 3 indoors heroic, you'll get 24 (ahoy) + 3x24 = 96 tokens a week. If you run 3 indoors heroic + manage to get a baddie, you'll get 120 a week. If you run 3 indoors heroic at challenge level, you'll get 120 a week (+24 if you get baddies) If you run 3 indoors heroic at expert level you'll get 132 a week (+24 with outdoors) 96 = heroics ; 120 = challenge ; 132 = expert without outdoors 120 = heroic + outdoors ; 144 =challenge + outdoors, 156 = expert + outdoors Number of coins needed on your main 2760 = 300 (items) + 300 (rune) + 24033 (shards)= 2160 + 300 + 300 = 2760 (add 300 if they ever put the class rune back) TEST ONLY: 24 from Ahoy + 3x 24 solo outdoors + 1 x 24 solo indoor = 120 tokens/week (23 weeks for a main, 5 weeks for an alt) 24 from Ahoy + 3x24 solo outdoors + 1x 24 solo indoor + 1x24 outdoors heroic = 144 tokens/week (20 weeks for a main, 5 weeks for an alt)
Mmmh, as pointed out by Myxx on discord, I miscalculated the first time around and never re-calculated the shards again. I probably was off by 10 shards when I typed it first and I typed 24033 shards in the mix, so obviously it's wrong. Taking it back again: Total needed: So we have 10 + 20 + 40 + 80 + 120 shards = 270*3 = 810 coin per item, so 810*3=2430 coins to level everything. 300 coins to buy all items 300 for the rune. So total coins needed on your main is 3030 Alt still needs 600. So total duration is between 32 weeks (3030/96) and 20 weeks for a main, between 7 and 4 weeks on an alt. Test only: 26 weeks to 22 weeks on main, 5 weeks for an alt. (doesn't change much in the long run tbh but sorry for the confusion. sadly not surprised to learn I made a mistake considering the number of time I redid the maths in the middle of the night). Thanks Myxx!
So, is it like last year where you need to level three items to level 5 before all shards are free or per item or per item and level? What happens if you get only 2429 coins, for example?
As posted on the post above that one, it's like last year, so everything up to 5 and it'll be unlocked.
Three items to level 5 in order to let the alts upgrade for free. (2 of the 4 accessories and the cloak, basically, since you can't wear more than that) If you come up one coin short, you don't get the unlock, which is the same as past years.
